10 MOST POPULAR FEMINIZED CANNABIS STRAINS AT RQS (2023)
If you're still undecided on what to grow this year, look no further. Let's jump straight into our most popular feminized cannabis strains of 2023.
1. Royal Gorilla
Up first is the insanely powerful Royal Gorilla. THC levels of over 25% will leave you surfing the giddy heights of euphoria in no time. And, thanks to RG's pungent earthy and pine notes, it's a high you'll want to savour every moment of.
What may come as a massive surprise is that Royal Gorilla’s genetic foundation was not the result of years of meticulous breeding, but the outcome of accidental pollination. All we can say is, while God works in mysterious ways, this time, she outdid herself. With indoor yields of 500–550g/m² and a flowering time of approximately 9–10 weeks, there'll be plenty of Royal Gorilla to go around.

2. Northern Light
Northern Light needs little introduction—the mere mention of its name is enough to give cannabis connoisseurs across the globe the shivers. And, although its exact origins are shrouded in mystery, if the rumours are true, Northern Light owes its legendary status to Afghan and Thai genetics.
A high defined by waves of intense relaxation has kept Northern Light at the top of the cannabis connoisser’s most-wanted list for decades. That, and the sight of its densely packed buds (all 550g/m² of them) dripping with resin come harvest. If you're tired of taking chances with unproven genetics, look no further.

3. Amnesia Haze
Cup winner, Dutch favourite, and profit-yielding classic Amnesia Haze is not a strain to be taken lightly. Not because it is challenging to grow, or susceptible to mould, but because it rewards growers with a haul so massive, you'll have to channel your inner Snoop Dogg to get through it all.
With genetics originally from the US, outdoor growers will need plenty of sun to make the most of Amnesia Haze's productivity. However, with the right climate, you can easily achieve 650–700g/plant. That's quite a lot of sativa-dominant buds just waiting to hit you with their extremely long-lasting high.

4. Green Gelato
This creation is all about premium dessert flavours—and ultimate dankness. Green Gelato delivers a taste sensation that will have stoners with a sweet tooth begging for more. Oh, and did we mention a THC content of 27%. Yep, that's right, not only does this resinous treat taste like heaven, but it'll get you there too with its intense physical high.
As you'd expect, a premium offering requires some finer touches in the grow room. Green Gelato benefits greatly from regular topping, alongside LST or ScrOG—the improvement in yield is more than worth it. Expect a stunning 500–700g/m² indoors and 800g/plant outdoors.

5. Sweet ZZ
Sweet ZZ will do anything but put you to sleep; instead, its explosion of intense fruity flavours will have you grinning from ear to ear and buzzing with happiness all day long.
Bred using Grape Ape and Grapefruit, it is RQS' homage to the revered Zkittlez. And, just like the original, our expert breeders have done everything possible to capture the qualities cannabis connoisseurs fell in love with. Indoor growers can expect 7–9 weeks of flowering and 550–600g/m² in yield. For best results outdoors, harvest at the end of September.

6. White Widow
A legend in Dutch coffeeshops, White Widow’s renown has since spread worldwide. And, on the off chance you haven't ever smoked White Widow, oh boy, are you in for a treat. Sativa-dominant, this old-school classic provides an interstellar high that borders on psychedelic—expect to have your mind firmly blown by insane levels of euphoria.
It's no slouch in the grow room either. Years of refinement have made White Widow a joy for first-time growers and an even greater experience for seasoned hands. The only question you need to ask yourself is if you can handle 19% THC and up to 600g/plant.

7. Skunk XL
Skunk XL has satisfied stoners, growers, and first-time blazers for generations with a balanced high and a sweet, fruity taste. Under the watchful eye of RQS, we've fine-tuned its taste and productivity to bring this cannabis classic into the 21st century. Anticipate a high that builds over time, gently soothing the mind and body—perfect for a late afternoon smoke.
As we alluded to, its productivity is just as pleasing as the high. Skunk XL performs solidly indoors and out. Growers opting for the former can expect 600–650g/m², while outdoor experts can earn themselves a highly respectable 625–675g/plant, provided they harvest in October.

Mild euphoria meets a strong case of the munchies, so load up Netflix and prepare to binge with this fruity sensation.
With its full-fat flavours come those fat yields we mentioned. Left outdoors, Fat Banana will develop a monstrous central cola and deliver a more than decent yield of (450–500g/plant), packed with over 25% THC and low amounts of CBD.

However you know OG Kush (Original Gangster, Ocean Grown), there's no doubting that this combination of ChemDawg, Lemon Thai, and Pakistani Kush is something special.

And now, thanks to RQS, you can capture the magic of OG Kush with our feminized seeds. Flowering is a mere 8 weeks, and the reward speaks for itself: 425–475g/m² indoors and 500–550g/plant outdoors.

10. Sour Diesel
Give Sour Diesel plenty of warmth and sunlight, and it'll return the favour ten-fold. Thanks to its strong American heritage, Sour Diesel loves warmer climates and will quickly reach over 2m tall. However, it isn't all growing and no showing. Its sativa dominance shines through at harvest, as a few tokes are all it takes to feel the intoxicating cerebral high take over.
If you do decide to let this beauty run wild in your garden, be aware that passersby might smell it before they see it—even with its impressive height. Sour Diesel has a very pungent aroma, with heavy chemical, herbal, and sour flavours.
